Chapter 353: The Airport

"Yes, of course!" Qin Chuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

The British second lieutenant and Qin Chuan lit each other's cigarettes, tightened the rifles on their backs, and said, "We're going to win this war soon, aren't we?" The Germans have been beaten by us and are powerless to resist! ”

"Maybe!" Qin Chuan replied: "Maybe they are waiting for the opportunity to counterattack!" ”

"I don't think they have a chance to counterattack!" The second lieutenant retorted: "There is nothing they can do with our 'Sherman' tank!" ”

A British soldier interjected: "I don't think so, second lieutenant, I heard that our attack on the road did not go well, we have been in the desert for too long, and we don't even know how to fight in the mountains of Tunis!" ”

"It's not that we don't know how to fight!" Another British soldier said: "It's that tanks are not suitable for fighting on such terrain!" ”

"What's more, they also have a 'Legendary Sergeant'!" These words startled all the German and French soldiers who could understand English, and everyone habitually cast their eyes in the direction of Qinchuan

"What?" Seeing the reaction of the soldiers, the British sergeant who said this asked strangely, "What's the situation?" Did I say something wrong? ”

"No, you didn't say anything wrong!" Qin Chuan replied: "One person can't change anything, can he?" ”

"Maybe that's right!" The British second lieutenant shook his head and said, "But it doesn't apply to the 'legendary sergeant', he always surprises us at critical moments, such as Tobruk!" ”

"And Matroux, Alexander!"

"Hey, don't forget that he also captured a whole fleet from the stupid French!" As soon as these words were spoken, the British second lieutenant remembered that Qin Chuan's team was all French, so he hurriedly said: "Sorry, lieutenant, I mean the Vichy government......"

"It's okay, second lieutenant!" Qin Chuan replied.

"Hey, you say!" The British sergeant threw the cigarette butt to the side of the road and asked, "What kind of surprise will the 'legendary sergeant' give us this time?" ”

"Who knows?" The British second lieutenant laughed.

"You can ask him!" Qin Chuan said: "I think he will be happy to tell you!" ”

There was a "coax", and the British soldiers all laughed.

The British second lieutenant also patted Qin Chuan on the shoulder and said, "You are very humorous, lieutenant, I found that I already like you!" ”

The soldiers burst into laughter again, and Werner and the others and even the French soldiers couldn't help but laugh, but their smiles had different meanings.

With these Britons by their side, the journey can be described as thrilling and safe.

It is said to be thrilling because the French battalion may be detected at any time.

It is said that it is safe because of the jokes and jokes with them, and no one doubts the identity of the French battalion.

When he arrived at Gafsa, Qin Chuan was separated from the group of British troops, and the British army was going to enter the city, but the destination of Qin Chuan and the others was the airport outside the city.

Waiting for the British army to walk away, Werner couldn't help laughing: "Lieutenant, if they knew that they were talking to the 'legendary sergeant' just now, I don't know what the reaction would be!" ”

"I think they're going to freak out!" Alfredo said, "Oh, the 'legendary sergeant' who captured the entire fleet and defeated us many times is right in front of us......"

"What are you talking about? What 'Legendary Sergeant'? At this moment, a voice from the team stunned everyone.

It turned out that there were two more British soldiers in the team, and they were not separated from the French battalion because they were going to the airport.

Because it was dark and everyone was in the same uniform, the soldiers didn't notice it.

"Hello!" Qin Chuan replied: "My name is Frick, which is what you call 'Legendary Sergeant'!" ”

"God!" The British soldier screamed and immediately touched the rifle on his shoulder, but it was too late......

Several French soldiers pounced, some grabbed their hands, some covered their mouths, and a few pulled out their thorns and stabbed them into the chests of the British soldiers.

Seeing this situation, Qin Chuan couldn't help frowning, these French soldiers were obviously not professional enough, otherwise only two or three people would be enough to do this, and the attack was not neat enough, and the military stabbed the other party several times before he could not move, so that everyone was covered in blood.

But the recruits, it is understandable, and it is normal to have a little blood on the battlefield, so Qin Chuan didn't say anything.

Several men carried the body to the side of the road and covered it with weeds, and the team continued towards the airport.

"Everyone!" Qin Chuan ordered: "Pay attention to your words and deeds, understand?" ”

"Yes, sir!" The soldiers replied in a whisper.

Werner added: "I'm sorry, sir! ”

Qin Chuan nodded, signaling that he didn't need to say any more.

When the team was still a few miles away from the airport, Qin Chuan asked the soldiers to stop and rest for a while...... It was a pre-battle break and at the same time to give the Baudouena team more time as they targeted the bus station in the city, which was further away.

In addition, Qin Chuan also needs to send scouts to reconnoiter and make some preparations.

After eating half a piece of bread and drinking a few sips of water, seeing that the time was almost up, Qin Chuan waved his hand, and the soldiers set foot on the march again.

At twelve o'clock in the evening, the team appeared on time in front of the checkpoint at Gafsa airport.

Although it was late at night, the airport was brightly lit, with rows of cars plying the road on the other side of the road...... Needless to say, these trucks brought wounded soldiers from the front line, and brought away ammunition and supplies needed by the front line.

So, it's easy to find a warehouse where to store ammunition and supplies, just follow the cars.

The group did not stop and walked straight to the airport checkpoint.

"Hey!" Two American GIs stopped the group and asked, "Which unit are you from?" What are you doing here? ”

Danielle greeted him and replied in French: "We belong to the 2nd French Infantry Regiment, and we have been ordered to come here to take a plane to Alexandria!" ”

This is a common occurrence at air bases, because the transport planes at this time are transporting supplies to the front line in whole planes, and when they return, they are often empty, so some small units will be hitchhiked back.

"French!" The American GI clearly lacked knowledge of the battlefield: "Didn't the French surrender?" ”

"Please, Sergeant!" Danielle said: "You have heard of de Gaulle! ”

"Oh yes!" The American GI nodded.

"We are his team, 'Fighting France' understand?" Fight France'! ”

"Okay!" The American GIs complained: "There are too many foreigners in the ranks of the British, you are waiting here!" ”

As he spoke, the American GI went to the phone booth to ask his superiors for instructions.

But of course, his phone line had been cut by the scouts, and it was impossible to get through.
